Rio de Janeiro:<\/strong> Portuguese club Porto’s star winger Hulk says he will be “hurt” if he is not selected in Brazil’s squad for the London Olympics.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old was the architect of Brazil’s 3-1 friendly victory over Denmark in Hamburg Saturday, scoring two goals and setting up the third.<\/p>\n

Coach Mano Menezes will name his 18-man squad July 6 and Hulk is vying for one of three places allowed for players over the age of 23.<\/p>\n

“We have to make the most of our chances when they come along and of course I will be hurt if I’m not called up,” Hulk was quoted as saying by Xinhua.<\/p>\n

“Because of the goals I rate that performance as my best so far for the national team.”<\/p>\n

Other over-age players hoping to be selected include AC Milan’s Thiago Silva and Real Madrid’s Marcelo.<\/p>\n

Brazil’s next match will be against the US in Washington Wednesday. It will be followed by games against Mexico and Argentina in early June. (IANS)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
